Kickfurther & NSR Invest Form Strategic Partnership to Enhance Data-Driven Investing


BOULDER, CO and DENVER, CO--(Marketwired - Apr 11, 2016) - Kickfurther, a leading inventory and invoice financing marketplace that connects companies and buyers seeking qualified short-term deal financing, and NSR Invest, a leading peer-to-peer investment management platform, are announcing a strategic partnership to increase data-driven investment capabilities to the Kickfurther platform. The announcement is being made at LendIt USA 2016.

The Kickfurther engineering team is utilizing NSR Invest's open architecture to provide its clients the ability to analyze and choose company offers using NSR's best-in-class analytics, trading and reporting tools.

"Kickfurther provides our clients with a differentiated opportunity to access investment opportunities that provide enhanced yield," said Bo Brustkern, NSR Invest Co-Founder & CEO. "Kickfurther is a fast-growing platform in the inventory financing space providing attractive short term yield opportunities on a fractionalized basis for both retail and accredited investors. This is an excellent fit for our 5,000-strong userbase, and aligns beautifully with our mandate."

"This partnership has the potential to add tens of millions of dollars into our crowdfunding ecosystem," said Kickfurther Co-Founder & CEO Sean De Clercq. "We admire the team at NSR Invest and their leadership as pioneers in FinTech. We're incredibly excited to work together to find more ways for all our customers to grow their money."

NSR Invest provides a direct, guided connection between investors and borrowers. The company enables individuals, wealth managers, family offices and institutions to access plug-and-play investment opportunities. Once the integration is complete, Kickfurther will add to the array of these opportunities on the NSR platform.

Kickfurther is the only marketplace where people can buy inventory for brands they love and earn profits when that inventory sells. The opportunity to crowdfund inventory on Kickfurther is unique because of the easily understood nature of the products and the low amount of capital needed to start earning profit in the retail market. The integration will allow NSR Invest users to plug into Kickfurther's offers that provide an average of 30.04% annualized growth.
